Current opportunities
Diabetes SA is inviting new applications for the 2026 Sieglinde Hannelore Darsow Type 1 Diabetes Research Grant
Diabetes SA is seeking proposals that challenge existing approaches, inspire new thinking, and deliver meaningful improvements in Type 1 diabetes care, therapies, technologies, or health outcomes. Funding may support any area of Type 1 diabetes health and medical research, from foundational discovery science through to clinical and translational research.
While all applications will be assessed on merit, priority consideration will be given to projects led by South Australian researchers or projects with strong potential to benefit South Australians living with Type 1 diabetes.
Please note applications previously submitted to the Diabetes SA Research Grant round in April 2026, will not be eligible for consideration under this funding opportunity.
Who can apply?
Applications are invited from qualified researchers and health professionals who are affiliated with a recognised research institution.
